Ed Sheeran has gatecrashed the first post-match interview given by new Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim – see the footage below.

The pop megastar is a proud fan of Ipswich Town, who earned a surprising 1-1 draw with United in their Premier League fixture at Portman Road on Sunday afternoon (November 24), Amorim’s first game in charge of his new club.

During his post-match interview on the pitch, Amorim was speaking to Sky Sports host Kelly Cates and pundits Roy Keane, Izzy Christiansen and Jamie Redknapp when Sheeran, who had been shown in the crowd repeatedly during the game, interrupted the interview to shake hands with Redknapp.

“I don’t think he wants to speak to me,” Sheeran quipped as Cates attempted to bring him into the conversation, referring to the fact that Ipswich had denied United an expected victory.

“I love it, I love being back in the Premier League,” Sheeran added, before leaving the panel to continue the broadcast. Ipswich were promoted into the league at the end of the 2023-24 season, finishing second in the EFL Championship.

Not everyone on social media was complimentary about Sheeran’s decision to butt into the interview, with one X user writing: “I’m honestly a bit aghast at how rude that was from Ed Sheeran. Amorim should have told them all to get fucked.”

Another X user added: “Rúben Amorim should walk on stage in the middle of the next Ed Sheeran concert, start giving his band mates high fives and ask them how they’re doing.”

In other Sheeran news, he recently said that despite his vocals being included in the new ‘Ultimate Mix’ version of Band Aid’s ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’, he would have respectfully declined to give permission for it had he been asked.

“A decade on and my understanding of the narrative associated with this has changed,” he explained, citing Fuse ODG’s argument that the song had “perpetuated damaging stereotypes” about Africa.

Band Aid mastermind Bob Geldof has vigorously defended the song, saying: ““This little pop song has kept millions of people alive. Why would Band Aid scrap feeding thousands of children dependent on us for a meal? Why not keep doing that? Because of an abstract wealthy-world argument, regardless of its legitimacy?”

“No abstract theory regardless of how sincerely held should impede or distract from that hideous, concrete real-world reality,” he added. “There are 600 million hungry people in the world — 300 million are in Africa. We wish it were other but it is not. We can help some of them. That’s what we will continue to do.”

An appeals court also recently found that Sheeran did not infringe on the copyright of Marvin Gaye’s ‘Let’s Get It On’ with his track ‘Thinking Out Loud’.
